To quote the late, great Robin Williams: "Spring is nature's way of saying, Let's party!" And there are plenty of spring email subject lines to get your newsletters in the spirit of things!

Email marketing mega-holidays like Christmas and Black Friday have passed. Maybe Valentine’s Day emails helped you get through the long winter. Now, it’s time for your spring email marketing campaigns!

Spring is a great time to send newsletters, especially when your email campaigns coincide with the many spring events and holidays like Easter, St. Patrick’s Day, Memorial Day and for some, Mother’s Day (US & Canada).

Although inbox competition is fierce at this time of year, you can stand out with a spring email subject line that speaks directly to your subscribers.

Even if you’re on the other side of the map with a different season, you can still get inspired by these subject lines for the holidays (come rain or shine)! So let’s get like the Easter Bunny and hop to it!
